Schoenegger Kaese-Alm has created a classic Bavarian cheese. They use fresh, unpasteurized milk from cows raised on mountain farms in protected regions of Europe where they are fed on fresh grass and hay. They were granted a special license from Prince Luitpold of Bavaria (great grandson of the last King of Bavaria, Ludwig II), to make Konig Ludwig Bierkase. König Ludwig Dunkel is a bottom-fermentation dark specialty beer, produced in accordance with traditional Bavarian brewing methods. This special beer is made in one of the last castle breweries in the heart of Bavaria, south of Munich in Kaltenberg Castle.

König Ludwig Bierkäse is a delicate yellow, semi-hard cheese with small holes ripened in fine King Ludwig dark beer to give it its hearty taste. This Dark Beer Cheese melts well for cooking, but is just terrific on its own or served with hearty German bread and a good beer.

This cheese is mild, mostly creamy but with just a bit of bite to it. Goes great with everything!

Fine cheese with an interesting story

King Ludwig Bierkase is a fairly soft, mellow tasting cheese with just a hint of stinky cheese funkiness. The beer taste is at just about the right level, not overpowering but definitely noticeable. My party guests enjoyed the story behind the cheese almost as much as the cheese itself: an authentic Bavarian product granted a license by Prince Luitpold and made with Konig Ludwig Dunkel lager, actually brewed in a Munich castle! I'll definitely be ordering more for Octoberfest next year.

Can sometimes be inconsistent

I enjoy this cheese and have ordered it 5 times. 4 were very enjoyable, in agreement with most of the good comments, but one was a different texture, more gummy than semi-firm crumbly, sour, hard to eat--yet the packaging and wrapper part were the same as the others.

King Ludwig Beer Cheese

I've had this cheese before & I wanted to share the great taste it has with my family. The city I was going to visit for Christmas didn't have it or the cities around. I had to order it & have it shipped. My family couldn't get enough of it. They thought that it was the best tasting cheese they had in quite some time. It arrived at the time I had requested & was fresh as if I had bought it from the store. Thank you for the great customer service. I will definitely order from you again.
